[Diabetes-Talk] IOS 14

[bkpollpeter at gmail.com]

I use my phone for almost everything, both personally and professionally. Or my iPad. And again, I can't remember an update ever impacting accessibility too much. But again, I have yet to update to 14. I think anyone with reservations is completely fine not doing the update.

So, there are probably a lot of variables that go into this. What version of phone you have, tips and tricks you might know to make it work, etc. I am not updated to 14 yet, but like I said, some people say it's awful accessibility wise, and others say they have not had issues. My advice, better to be safe than sorry.
